Return by Steamtram
Hoorn – Medemblik vice -versa
The engine whistles and the fireman shovels coal into the firebox. An adventurous trip to days gone by is about to begin, when steam trams connected ancient towns like Hoorn and Medemblik. Take a seat in the antique coaches. Listen to the clickety-clack of the wheels, hear the escaping steam and feel the tram move through the timeless Westfrisian countryside. At beautifully restored stations along the route you can witness how goods and mail used to be transferred between platform and purpose-built goods and mail vans, all under the watchful eye of the station master.
